Teen Quest (ages 13, 14, 15)

Weeks 1-8

This optional program for teens is an excellent chance for our older campers to enjoy many camp activities while also gaining valuable skills necessary for today’s world. Each week they will attend a rotating group activity: leadership skills workshops, on-site community service (can qualify for National Honor Society community service hours), career exploration workshops, motivational guest speakers (we’ve hosted: award winning filmmakers, Wharton department head and radio host, business owners and entrepreneurs, and more) and writing, producing, recording podcasts. Other opportunities for Teen Quest campers include on-site internships based on campers' interests (choices: camp office, nurse’s office, any major/minor class, working with younger kids, etc.). Teens that do not choose Teen Quest are still eligible for our regular Senior Camper Program.

Teen Quest Testimonials

"I feel as though Teen Quest is the perfect opportunity to have the freedom of being an adult but having as much fun as a child." -Art Major

"I like interning because interning helps you get ready to be an Apprentice at Burn Brae in the future. I think it's good to let the teens decide what they want to do - like getting to choose between Sports and Swim Instruction." -Dance Major

"I like how I met a lot of friends fast! I like how we have a lot of freedom in our schedule." -Art Major

"This is a great way to interact with other teens." -Movie Production Major
